hi mark, the environ method's signature is like this in a quickstarted project's RootController: "def environ(self)" so it does not receive any request parameters.
if you add arguments like this: "def environ(self, FirstName, LastName, submitbutton)" it will work. another option is using keyword arguments like "def environ(self, **kwargs)". good luck.
